| Turkey struggles to get aid to stricken villages | |
| Published on Oct 25, 2011 by Euronews http://www.euronews.net/ The scale of destruction in the village of Guvencli is typical of the damage caused by the earthquake to several villages across southeastern Turkey. It is almost impossible to tell looking at the many piles of rocks and rubble that around 150 houses once dotted the landscape. Most have been destroyed and little is left of those remaining. Given the village is only 25 kilometres from the quake's epicentre, it is amazing that only 15 of its 3,000 residents were killed. | |

| Uploaded by democracynow on Oct 26, 2011 www.DemocracyNow.org - Oakland police repeatedly fired tear gas and flash grenades Tuesday night as protesters attempted to retake the Occupy Oakland encampment outside City Hall — only 12 hours after police tore apart the camp and arrested more than 90 people in a pre-dawn raid. Observers said that at times, the downtown resembled a warzone last night. Some protesters are being held on $10,000 bail. Democracy Now! speak to Rachel Jackson of the Oscar Grant Committee Against Police Brutality and State Repression about how the police are handling Occupy Oakland. Also interviewed is John Avalos, San Francisco City Supervisor and a candidate for mayor of San Francisco.

| OccupyProtest may be moving in next door to you | |
| Uploaded by UpTakeVideo on Oct 24, 2011 OccupyMN may be moving in next door to you. Nick Espinosa, one of the OccupyMN organizers, says the group is considering going to occupy foreclosed homes when inevitable snows begin to fall in Minneapolis. The group has been blessed with relatively mild October weather while it has camped out in The People's Plaza, also known as Hennepin County Government Center plaza. Beyond preventing hypothermia, the move would also draw attention to one of the primary reasons the group of 100 or so people have been in the plaza for two weeks --the need to put a moratorium on home foreclosures. Some 29,000 homes in Minnesota are now in foreclosure process. A foreclosure moratorium is one of the specific demands the group has made so far. Nationally the movement has changed the conversation about rich and poor and forced the media to write more about the disparity between the richest 1% of Americans and all others. A few days ago, seven protestors were arrested for blocking an intersection in downtown Minneapolis. Espinosa sees this as but one tool to help accomplish goals. He said that rallies, protests and marches haven't produced results so they will try a number of approaches. Espinosa has participated in a number of high profile protests including a bag of pennies for gubernatorial candidate Tom Emmer and glitter for Newt Gingrich and the Marcus Bachmann clinic. The general assembly for operation is puzzling to many. It's a consensus approach rather than a typical Robert's Rules of Order approach. About 100 people have been sleeping over in the park south of the building and about the same number have been participating in the daily general assembly | |
